				<link>http://www.apolloridge.com/apps/news/article/2102303</link>
				<guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.apolloridge.com/apps/news/article/2102303</guid>
					<description><![CDATA[We are preparing for our upcoming special education review, which happens every six years. As part of this process, we need your help by completing a quick survey. Parents, please use this link to share your feedback: http://apps.leaderservices.com/ParentSurvey

Students in special education will also need to complete a survey—details are in the letter from the Bureau of Special Education Chief, Carol Clancy.

Please complete the surveys by January 23, 2026. While that’s a while away, I encourage you to do it early.

The review week is March 9, 2026, when a team will visit to review files and talk with parents, teachers, and students (over age 14).

If you have questions, feel free to contact me.

Thank you for your participation!  
Dr. Chris Clark  
Director of Special Programs]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[As a safety measure to keep our students, staff, and campus visitors safe, temporary traffic drums have been placed along the pedestrian walkways in the first two rows of the parking lot as a deterrent for use of these lanes as a drive through. Please observe the traffic patterns and only utilize the third row drive to access the elementary school, student drop off or parking in the first two rows right side of the lot. Semi-permanent barriers have been ordered and will eventually replace the traffic drums.

Your cooperation is greatly appreciated. Any questions may be addressed to Mr. Skiba, School Safety and Student Services.]]></description>
